Births to bereavements: Tuvalu civil registration and vital statistics plan put forward in SPC report
TAGS

The Pacific Community (SPC) released a report on Assessment, Analysis and Redesign of the CRVS System in Tuvalu. The report explored civil registration and vital statistics (CRVS) in the country, from the recording of births, adoptions, marriages, name changes, divorces and deaths, and their flow-on use in official statistics for planning at the population level.

Life event records lead to accurate, complete and timely vital statistics. The national CRVS systems need to be robust and capable of supplying the necessary information for individual, administrative and statistical use. The report is pushing for advocating both short-term improvements and a long-term shift to an electronic civil registration and vital statistics system.
